About Taffy

I am a certified medical assistant. I have worked in the medical office setting dealing directly with the Physician and patients, but quickly realized that type of career was not for me. I felt like I was working on a cattle ranch were the patients were herded in and out as fast as possible. I prefer one on one contact. This allows more time to get to know each other and discuss any problems or just to talk about anything. I have experience with Alzheimer's and Dementia plus Neurological disorders such as severe brain injuries and stokes victims. I do diabetic monitoring and medication, plus neuropathy knowledge, and formal training in transfer techniques.I am CPR certified. My patient, caring and calm personality allows me to handle certain situations in an efficient and professional manner. With all that being said, my most valuable qualification is my passion to help others. I love my profession and I am very good at it

    I am an LVN with a history of individual care of elderly, terminally ill patients and patients with special needs. I am energetic, organized and detail-oriented. I do my best to make sure that all duties are performed professionally and to my patient's and employer's standards and satisfaction. I have been interested in having a career in the medical field since I was a young girl. Throughout my adult life I have tried to pursue a career in nursing, but only recently have I been able to accomplish that. I have cared for a special needs patient for 13 years and have cared for patients with various other types of needs since 1999. I enjoy helping others. I perform at least 20 hours of community service a week and have been with the same organization for over 10 years. I am compassionate and caring. I want to do whatever I can to help make the lives of those with disabilities and illnesses easier and more productive while allowing them to maintain as much of their independence as possible.
